Category 6 has been around for some time now, but since its ratification in 2002 it is fast becoming the most popular choice for high spec installations. Category 6 offers more than twice the bandwidth of Enhanced Category 5 and is tested up to 250MHz.
This not only provides an excellent platform for existing high speed applications, but also provides for future applications which will utilise high speed full duplex transport.
Category 6 is specified in EIA/TIA-568-B.2-1 and ISO/IEC 11801 (Class E).
Connectix Category 6 cabling systems exceed the permanent link and channel specifications as well as the individual connecting hardware and cable specifications; ensuring true Cat 6 performance as well as full backward compatibility with Category 5E and Category 5 systems.
